Kansas aims to reverse Common Core adoption and draft new guidelines

Baldwin City Considers Loss If Common Core Fails
Baldwin City School Superintendent Paul Dorothy warns a bill to kill Common Core could cost the district over 100000 dollars in wasted prep. The district has invested in curriculum realignment training and new textbooks for Common Core, which would become useless if the standards are abandoned. If the law passes, the district may revert to pre Common Core standards and face more costs. Elvyn Jones.
